For years my daughter went on the pony ride in Ft. Wilderness. Each year we had to make sure that she was watching her eating prior to going, as there was a weight limit, but no age limit. We had to have the lightest child at the age of 7.
Recently we went to Ft. Wilderness, and she asked about horseback riding. We were a bit strapped for cash, so we had to decline going. The horseback riding experience in Disney is very nice. You go out for @ a 2 mile walk in the woods. You are in a guided group, so you don’t get to go wherever you want. She really wanted to go. I believe it cost @ $50.
She misses at least seeing the animals that used to be at the petting zoo in Ft. Wilderness. You can still get pony rides while there. Maybe I should put her on a real strict diet to get her weight to where she can get on a pony… Much cheaper. ROFLMAO.
She asked about riding when we got home. We told her that a lot of places that offer horseback riding in NJ want you in their camp, or whatever. Other than being in their camp, or whatever you had to have the right riding gear. This would consist of helmet, breeches, and other necessary clothing. She instantly said no way, as she wouldn’t want to wear uncomfortable stuff.
Now she will wait to go back to Ft. Wilderness, as it is a bit expensive here in NJ anyway.

I would love to do the horseback riding too. $50 isn’t bad considering what the prices around the nation are. And considering you’re at Disney, it’s highly reasonable. But it’s still $50 per person so it’ll be something we do one day when we feel rich. If you get to do it before us I hope you’ll get lots of pictures.
Keep your promises. Mind what you say.
